I guess that I am intending this to be a bit of an ongoing dialogue, something like a journal.  A means by which to purge and share and grow. 

I imagine that there are those who would find such openness to be distasteful, but but I do not prescribe.  I feel that when people become guarded and fear the ability to honestly share that of which is truest about themselves is when things have gone wrong.  I can not help but wonder how it is that one can ever truly connect with others if it isn't really the true you that they see.

Anyway....this is the true me, and it's quite all right if you don't like it, you don't have to, because it is mine and I happy to explore this journey before me

Well I guess the appropriate way to begin is with a basic introduction (I shall expand from there in the days to come) I think that I shall seperate it into different aspects of who I am, much like I view the Goddess, many parts all different and unique and yet parts of a complete single entity.

First I am a mother, I have 4 beautiful children that are the light and love of my life: Ricky is my first, he is 18 and just recently began his own journey out into the "real" world He is an extremely multifaceted young man, a poet, political activist, and highly compassionate student of the human condition.  I do not think there is anyone who he could not make smile with his quick wit and uniquely insightful view of the world in which we live.  Next are my 9 year old twins, Anastasia and Antoinette.  Anastasia  has a condition called Aspergers syndrome, which is a high functioning form of Autism.  and so she views the world from a different perspective than most.  Her highest degree of difficulty with this is that she was not born with the same level of natural understanding of how to respond to life in a manner that society deems acceptable and so I must guide through that.  She makes me wonder, however how many artists, writers, "great minds perhaps experienced the same issues as she faces, because she can create an see creation in a manner touching genius, and her vocabulary both in use and understanding sometimes far surpasses my own.  Antoinette...lol...seems often to be my clone.  She is sensitive and loves all creatures with a completely open heart.  She will try to save that which is hurt, often taking on challenges that she cannot win, and shedding tears of true sorrow at the loss of any life.  Being aware that her feelings are not much like most people she encounters she is often shy and uncertain, but as she grows I hope to help her overcome those fears, and to learn that those things that are different about her are strengths that the world needs to be reminded are vital.  Lastly is my Sammy, my lil' fellow, he is bright and full of energy. He is both a bit of a spit~fire and a little lover.  He is often at my side, trying to do whatever it is Mommy is doing, be is carving or cleaning, lol I do belive that he is the only 4 year old I know that can point out the chakra symbols and tell you their correlations.
